A spruce-up for Stan please from 1944
« on: Monday 16 April 18 12:40 BST (UK) »
Before I add this to the new IBCC digital archive I think he could do with a quick tidy up please.

Many thanks.  :)

Blonde hair and blue eyes but sadly did not survive; that's why he is commemorated at the new IBCC in Lincoln.

Now I have to choose which one to use!   Thank you so much.   :)

Oops....should have asked.....do I have your permission to post one of them to the IBCC archive?

He died aged 23, average age for Bomber Command crew;  buried with the rest of his crew in a French graveyard in northern France.

A tail-end Charlie.

Aw...what a loss  :-\
We are going to see the monument with my son and his family very soon...he is a flight Sergeant based at RAF Waddington. If you would like, I can photograph the panel for you when we go.

An uncle I never knew.  :'(

Thank you for the offer of a photo but the IBCC sent me a photo of his panel a few weeks ago.  If you want to say hello he is on panel 126.

Aw that's great and how lovely to have a photo of him to remember him by and for him to take his rightful place where others can show their respect.
